HAPPY THANKSGIVING ...

... to all our American friends and a just good old Happy Day to everyone else throughout the world!

This is Lucky and our turkey in 2007.

This year we are having one of those organic, all-natural, happy-lived, free-range, grass-fed, pampered, local-grown turkeys - we call him Gandhi. I suspect you will read more about this experiment. Gandhi was expensive. Gandhi better be good.

What's on your menu?

"HEY THERE. RG! ...

(Oh, by the way, I removed some inactive blogs and added some new ones to the blog list off to the right. I also inverse sorted it so you bottom guys get top billing for awhile. I especially call your attention to the blog about Henry the Turtle. Rabbits deserve a Turtle! Give Henry a look see!)

"Me too Luckster. But a grand party - done in style by BL as usual, with a little help from her friends. Celebrating the one-year anniversary of a group-planting of a bunch of little trees down along the Joe Leary Slough that runs along a bit of our property. You can read an article about it here. - and, for gosh sakes - start to pick up on BL's brand-new blog "Skagit Leeks" - RG

THE PRINCESS AND JADE ....

... "Ok, ok ... so it is our Jade plant, not the Mick's Jade. And, hopefully you can see the Bunny Crossing sign in operation." - RG

THIS LOOKS BAD FOR ME ...

"These two clearly appear to have found a common interest which does not appear exactly as if it is going to turn out too good for me." - RG

"DOUBLE YOUR DISAPPROVAL"

"That'll last 'em for the week-end." - Goldie and Benji

BY REQUEST

Little Sweeties

(We had no idea what would happen when we sat these two together, they have never shared space. And, we did not dilly dally to find out. Maybe another time we will be more patient and try for a much better picture.)

"SMILE, LUCKY! ....

WHY I DON'T TRUST 'EM

WATCH BUNNS

"Anybody remember a little black bird - the "Watch Bird" - in an old Lady's magazine many years ago? Little bugger reported on all of a kid's mis-doings. The theory was it made you behave better. (Just made me be sure not to get caught.") "These fellows here? They don't report, they just remember!" - RG, the Watched.

THE PRINCESS

She can move fast!

"I GOT YUR BACK, WINSTON.

"I got yur's too, Clucker." "What's that mean Winnie?" "It means, well, ah, er ... hmmm. What the heck DOES it mean?" "Maybe it means we are like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Winnie. I can be Sundance." "Works for me Lucky-my-boy. Racer with his baby-blues would make a better Butch, but I'll do my best." "Yipee-Ti-Yi-Yo!" "Who ARE those guys?" - RG
